You can't even get pie and mash with liquor, or jellied eels in Shoreditch anymore. London is being ruined by the Guardian types and all in the name of "diversity". It makes me sick to my stomach.

Now you're being theatrical!

There are plenty of places in London where you can get a bacon butty and a mug of tea for a reasonable price - I went to such a place in Camden last year.

It isn't about diversity, it's about choice. Your heroine, Margaret Thatcher would've praised these 2 hipsters as showing their entrepreneurial spirit & offering the public choice.

If the said shop was offering punters a choice of left wing mags such as Socialist Worker or The New Statesman with their mug of tea you'd be on here griping about left wing hypocrites. If the protest was about an upmarket café serving exclusive red wine and foie gras on toast for the well heeled, you'd be on here whining about leftists who enjoy a bit of 'class war'.

Who are you for HH? Or are you just in it for the whinge? You seem very provincial in your outlook and rather narrow minded

I dont see this debate about the price of said breakfast. If its too expensive people wont go and the shop will close. Its that simple. The problem I have is with these thugs who for some reason think its ok to go on a riot all because a shop sells expensive breakfasts. What is their problem?

Why blame the cafe, people must be buying it for the owners the pay the undoubtedly massive rent in London + wages (also massive) and make a profit. What should they charge less and potentially make a loss just to please non-customers.

Here is a really bizarre idea, those protesting why don't they get up 10 mins earlier and have a bowl of Cheerios and make a coffee before being setting off.

Who drinks coffee at breakfast anyway, horrid they need a proper brew.

Fail. No you can't- Shoreditch is the probably biggest example of social cleansing the UK has ever seen. I'm from Haringey which is also undergoing mass social cleansing. Just google - Gentrification - Sweets Way, the Aylesbury, E15 mums, Brixton 5 Storeys. For a few more examples.

What do you call reasonable prices? I doubt these are reasonable for working class Londoners.

Nearly all the social cleansing evictions have now mostly been replaced with wealthy guardianist hipsters. Working class Londoners like myself could never afford to move back home.
